Mexico

TEQUILA, Mexico Tequila the drink, not the city is Mexico s national beverage, a fiery nectar made from the blue agave s sweet juice. Tequila the city, not the drink is where visitors come to drink and pay homage to the liquor.

TECATE, Mexico -- From San Diego, Highway 94 winds through rugged mountain passes, past gnarled stands of oak trees, to a sleepy border crossing.
